A Practical Look at NetDevOps
summary
Live demo builds a full NetDevOps pipeline on a laptop: a netsim-based dev network synced to Cisco NSO, configs edited as YAML, pushed with Ansible + NSO, and versioned in GitLab CI. Commits trigger linting then a shared test deployment; verification runs as Robot Framework tests that call device libraries, producing downloadable artifacts on failure. Demo shows catching a syntax bug locally, fixing it, promoting to test where automated checks validate VLANs and OSPF neighbors before a staged production merge.
